Simple White Bread

Mmmm! My bread is ready! But I have to wait a few minutes for it to cool, so I thought I'd pass on this recipe for simple, quick bread!

My recipe is a simplification of this recipe because I did not have everything on hand.

Simple White Bread

1 tablespoon Fast Rising Yeast
1/3 cup Honey
1 1/2 cup Warm Water
Mix. Let stand for 5-10 minutes.
Add 3-4 1/2 cups of Flour
Mix and then knead.
Add 4 tablespoons of olive oil
Knead.

Grease Pan. Put in warm oven (about 150 degrees F)
Let rise for 30 minutes.
Turn oven up to 375 degrees F
Cook for 30-40 minutes

I didn't have enough honey last time, so I looked for something else to put in. I tried about a tablespoon of molasses! It gave it a yellow tint, but I don't know how much it changed the flavour. This time, I had no honey, so I tried 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. I have now consumed the little loaf I made, and I can say that it wasn't sweet enough. But I do think that 1/3 cup of honey is too much. I'll change this once I find the perfect amount.

Also, the original recipe calls for 4 1/2 cups of flour, but I can only seem to knead in 3 cups. Maybe it works better with a mixer

Mike said he was going to make the original version tonight, but he was going to leave it for a few hours after rising and then cook it. He is supposed to let me know how that goes...

PS I usually make the same recipe for bread as my family (similar to this), but I left that recipe in Toronto for some silly reason.
